COMMENTS:
The Oakville Secondary Schools Boundary Review seeks to address growing enrolment pressures at St.
Thomas Aquinas Catholic Secondary School.
At the February 17, 2015 Regular Meeting of the Board, Trustees approved Board Resolution #28/15,
RESOLVED, that the Halton Catholic District School Board conduct a School Boundary Review
Process for the Oakville secondary school panel to address growing accommodation pressures
and program needs, to be implemented for the 2016-2017 school year.
Following the approval of the above resolution by the Board, Planning Services completed its analysis of
the existing Town of Oakville secondary schools’ attendance boundaries and reviewed potential options
that would address growing enrolment pressures. Of the options reviewed, Planning Services and senior
staff shortlisted four (4) options to be presented to the School Boundary Review Advisory Committee.
One parent council representative and one alternate from each elementary and secondary school in
Oakville were invited to form the Oakville Secondary Schools Advisory Committee. Membership was
confirmed on March 4, 2015.
On March 4, 2015, Board staff met with the Advisory Committee at St. Mary Catholic Elementary School
and presented four (4) school attendance boundary options. Overall the committee was satisfied with the
four (4) options presented.
On April 13, 2015, the Board hosted a Community Consultation Meeting (CCM) at St. Ignatius of Loyola
Catholic Secondary School, where 41 participants attended of the 107 that pre-registered. In addition,
there was the opportunity for the wider community to submit their comments and input online. This online
forum was available until May 8, 2015. A total of 69 online submissions were received and reviewed.
On May 14, 2015, the Advisory Committee met at St. Mary Catholic Elementary School. Fourteen (14) of
the twenty (20) advisory committee members were present. The options and a summary of the
community feedback from the CCM and online forum were presented by Board staff, and the members
were asked to work in groups to review the community input, and develop a recommendation(s) based on
the six (6) Boundary Review Criteria. They are listed below:
Operating Policy I-29: School Boundary Review Process – 6 Review Criteria
1.
Optimizing the use of existing school facilities, while ensuring that pupils are accommodated to the
extent possible, in permanent school facilities that are within their enrolment capacities;
2.
Minimizing the use of portable classrooms whenever possible, excepting during the establishment
phases of new communities and throughout the peak enrolment phases of schools;
3.
To the extent possible, minimizing school boundary adjustments, thereby ensuring that said boundaries
remain stable, over a minimal five-year period;
4.
To the extent possible and in accordance with Board policy, optimize the cost-effective use of school
transportation;
5.
Ensuring that a cost-effective range of program delivery, responding to pupil needs, is achieved through
the optimum distribution of school enrolment;
6.
To the extent possible, give due consideration to the concept of a community of associated schools and
where feasible, give consideration to a Catholic school community in which school boundaries will
substantially match Catholic parish boundaries.
Oakville Secondary Schools Boundary Review Final Report and Recommendations
Page 2 of 4
After careful consideration of the information and community input, the Advisory Committee reached the
following unanimous recommendations:
The Oakville Secondary School Boundary Review Advisory Committee recommends that OPTION 2
(see Appendix A) be adopted effective the 2016-17 school year with the following additional
considerations:
I.
That all Grade 9, 10 and 11 students (enrolled in the 2015-2016 school year) be offered the
option to remain at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Secondary School (CSS) until they graduate.
II.
That transportation be provided for the 2016-2017 school year to St. Thomas Aquinas CSS for all
students redirected from St. Thomas Aquinas CSS and no transportation will be provided after
June 30, 2017 to students residing outside of the St. Thomas Aquinas CSS attendance boundary
area.
III.
That siblings of students redirected from St. Thomas Aquinas CSS to St. Ignatius of Loyola CSS
or Holy Trinity CSS will not be offered the option to remain at St. Thomas Aquinas CSS and will
not be provided transportation to St. Thomas Aquinas CSS.
IV.
That Board staff organize a meeting with the St. Mary and Holy Family School communities to
communicate that they have the option to attend St. Ignatius of Loyola CSS (St. Mary Catholic
Elementary School) and Holy Trinity CSS (Holy Family Catholic Elementary School) effective the
September 2015-2016 school year as cross-boundary students. However, transportation will not
be provided until the 2016-2017 school year, if applicable.
V.
That Holy Trinity and St. Ignatius of Loyola Catholic Secondary Schools place additional emphasis
on their promotional efforts to better inform parents of the wide variety of programming these
schools have to offer.
Board staff have also consulted with Halton Student Transportation Service (HSTS) to determine the cost
of the Advisory Committee’s recommendation.
On June 2, 2015, senior staff presented to the Board of Trustees the rational for undergoing a Boundary
Review for Oakville Secondary Schools; the six (6) Boundary Review Criteria identified in Operating Policy
I-29: School Boundary Review Process; the public consultation process that was followed for both the
Community Consultation Meeting and the online feedback component; the findings and trends of the
public consultation; and the recommendations provided by the Advisory Committee. The presentation is
attached as Appendix B for your information.
The current step in the Oakville Secondary School Boundary Review Process is for the Board of Trustees
to review the recommendations provided by the Advisory Committee and supported by senior staff for the
new 2016/17 school attendance boundaries for the three (3) Oakville Secondary Schools and associated
considerations, and render a decision on the matter based on the information presented.
CONCLUSION:
Board staff have reviewed all the Boundary Review data and comments, and concur with the
recommendation to implement the attendance boundaries presented as Option 2, with the associated
considerations.
